Geographical Imaginations was recently included on Fräulein Flora’s list of Top 5 favorite radio shows broadcasting from Radio Fabrik, our home station here in Salzburg. As you will remember from EPISODE FOUR “Little Stories” Fräulein Flora’s Favourite Hangouts started as an alternative mapping guide of Salzburg’s little known hangouts and spots found off the normal tourist route. Flora was literally mapping out the stories and anecdotes of this city for both the newcomer and native to include on their mental map of Salzburg. After months and months of hard work and commitment to their vision Eva Krallinger and Matthias Gruber–and Flora, of course–now frame and shape a diversified and eclectic way of knowing the City of Mozart through an extended online presence that includes hundreds of tips for things to do here. Their project offers up a fresh geographical imagination for a city with so much tradition. For the entire article and their website click here.

In EPISODE FOURTEEN, Krampus Goes to Hollywood we look at how Alpine folk culture has made it into global popular culture on the back of the Krampus. In a lively conversation with local cultural historian Christoph Schwaiger we look at both the Krampus of yesteryear and the one you might catch “running” the streets today during St. Nicholas celebrations in central Europe.
This is a look at the many geographies produced by an anthropomorphic goat-man. Trust me, it is exciting! This Saturday, November 28th on Radio Fabrik. As always, 7:06 PM Salzburg, Austria time and 1:06 PM New York.

Since my arrival to Salzburg last August I have been drawn to the Untersberg, the first Alp visible from the north side of the range here in Salzburg. This is a sacred mountain and, for many, enters into the geographical imagination that way. Join me as I continue to explore the cultural geographies of this sacred mountain. Contributing to the program are: Dr. Veronica della Dora, Rainer Limpöck, Matthias Gruber and Eva Krallinger. Check us out on Saturday, August 22nd on Radio Fabrik or listen here to the podcast after the original airing. As always, 7:06 PM Salzburg, Austria time and 1:06 PM New York.
